I know it’s fun to mod and work on guns. I absolutely love it. I was watching a video on UA-cam the other day and this guy was talking about making mods on a weapon used in a EDC shooting as it is viewed by the plaintiff lawyer in court. It made me rethink mods on my EDC. I’m leaving my EDC factory. Great video
I've had two M2.0s and I always used the palm swell back strap as well!! Great video as always brother!! This gun may make me buy something other than a 2011 for the first time in a long time
Great video! You really, really hooked it up! Only changes I would make is +2 base plates and red or black trigger blade safety. Excellent build though, congrats!
Apex tactical m&p metal trigger kit with apex m&p competition spring kit for m&p 1.0. Manual said it doesn’t fit, but I’ve been shooting mine for 3k rounds with no problem. It’s average about 2.1 lbs trigger pull.
Bro, when I looked into the Apex, I had the same thought. Which spring did you pair with the Sear Plunger? I couldn't work that one out on paper. Didn't want to spend $300 to figure it out.
Both triggers are close, biggest difference is the interface with the sear. Unless this is different since it is the comp, the sear does not have a plunger under it, just a spring. On the Overwatch they use just the spring, on the Apex they add in a plunger again. The plunger does make the trigger feel a bit smoother and reset is better, I believe.
I'm 100% an M&P fan boy, that aside, that is a beautiful build you did, and I'm gonna have to do a similar one myself one I get my hands on the new comp m&p
The lack of decocker, hammer blocker, and external safety are the only reason that I didn't drop everything that I was doing to get the m&p yesterday. I would love to see a custom build with those features for sale near me. I like tb he plate upgrade very nice. I love S&W the name is iconic so when this baby came out my jaw dropped.
@calvinspiff4348 I guess that external safety is not the most important thing in my life, but I just feel that when there are kids around, especially I feel more comfortable having as many features in place to prevent any kind of accidents and the external safety is as reliable as it gets. I know it's not necessary, but I still prefer it because, unlike myself, some people may not be as cautious or educated on firearms. It really just accounts for that 0.01% of accidents that do happen, I don't want my firearm being the one that does it. I'm consciously erring on the side of caution for safety sake. Not that I would ever leave my side arm unsupervised. That's a no-no, but even still, I feel more comfortable knowing that there are more than adequate mechanical hinderences to prevent any kind of misuse in any situation whatsoever.
That gun is badass. nice job. C'mon man, 2 hours? You should have it modded, been to the range and back, and sewed up a holster. Skip, you're slippin'!
The plastic plates break. If you drop it, or have it in a duty holster and fall, the optic can lose zero, in some cases totally. I'd recommend aftermarket plates from either C&H or Calculated Kinetics
Astigmatism suffers…..please note the scs holsun only comes in a 2 moa option and in green. Wish they would make 6 moa red version which is better for people with astigmatism. I own one and the green starbursts too much for me and there’s no way to really mitigate the effect with the default brightness settings because of the solar panels. The auto adjust works really well…..but if you need to set the dot to like 2 or 3 brightness settings…..you can’t. You get like 4 or 6 brightness thats it….or whatever the light sensor wants to adjust too.
@@SkipsGunz the larger reticle is worse for me, you have the dot, dot and circle, and the circle. Both circles are blurry for me and l can’t you lower the brightness low enough to make it usable. The 6 moa dots only slightly smear for me. I can still see a circular dot, 2 moa looks like firework with spider legs. I have a bad astigmatism in both eyes. 6 moa is the only option for me. I have scs on my Glock. Love the profile. But it’s not really usable for me. The star burst will obscure my target damn near completely. So lm guessing. I zeroed it at 15yrds. But it’s a risk. So l turn the dot off mostly.

I have heard of several people in the forums who had their plastic plate fail. $50 buys you a real plate made of metal from c&h precision. If you don't want to spend additional money on a plate or dont want to use a plate, holosun scs is your only option.

@imstuner I'm in AZ, so nothing illegal. I've run a similar setup for edc but with a tlr1 and no gas pedal. Worked great and nice to carry even in the desert heat
Been looking into getting the M&P 2.0. I just have a couple questions, is this the full size version? If so is it still a good carry gun? Also if you reccomend the compact version for carry does this holosun fit the compact M&P 2.0?
My packaging says 2.8lbs to 4.4lbs for that trigger. I called over watch and asked how to get to the 2.8lbs, they said to not use the red or green but stock spring and you get 2.8lbs.

The overwatch precision kit does come with a plunger and plunger spring that makes the take up feel smoother
@skipsguns if you use all of the Apex parts and use the trigger shoe from overwatch it makes the best trigger in my opinion.
I know it's off topic but I stuck the apex plunger in my shield 9 and it made a huge difference on pull and took away the grittiness.
Thanks for the suggestion on the gas pedal but there was no option for the M&P. Decided to get one for each of my other carry guns :-)
Just an awesome looking piece of art. 👍🏻
